It's wild how a 15 year old boy that was too scared to hold a speech infront of his family has turned into captain of the best Arsenal team in more than decade. I just love Martin

I just love how humble and down to earth he is and I hope to see Arsenal win the Premier league this year after twenty years of waiting.

Still a bit surreal as a Norwegian Gunner, that the captain is Ødegaard. Been following Arsenal since the late 90s and never imagined a Norwegian would be leading the charge for a team like this, fighting for silverware. Really proud of him, so humble and down to earth, yet such a strong heart and technically he's outstanding. His dad is also the manager of my home team, and saved them from relegation at the last minute the previous season in the Norwegian League which is a bit mad.

my captain !!! PLAYER OF THE YEAR incoming

There were so much pressure on him to be THAT 18 years old wonderkid at Real Madrid. But maybe that is not his destiny, cause he is meant to be a 24 years old captain at the Arsenal and about to (hopefully) win the PL. Either way, my opinion on him is that he is a very smart, articulate, valiant and extremely talented young man. And i am sure this there are so much more we gonna see from him.

What a player, what a captain, what a person ❤️

A part of me (as an Arsenal fan) died the day Cesc (El Capitan) left us, when we most needed him. That part lives again. Ø captain, my captain.

One of the most humble, kindest players that I’ve had the pleasure of meeting/interviewing. So excited for what Martin and this Arsenal squad can achieve 🫶🏾

God, please let this man lift the Premier League trophy in May 🙏🙏🙏

This guy will end up a legend at Arsenal. Will win us the league and the champions league at some point

One thing Martin and Gabi Martinelli have in common is this: They found home in Arsenal after years of uncertainty. You can feel the love from Martin.

I am so glad you found arsenal, we love you Martin. Best midfielder in the world. MØ8❤️🔴

I remember being in school, year 8 I think, when he signed. Everyone was talking about it, even some teachers. Never ever thought he'd find his way to Arsenal but I'm glad he did ❤️❤️🔴⚪

I think I speak for all the Arsenal fans, we are very lucky to have such a player and its pleasure to have him as our captain! Love you Martin! ❤

I never doubted this kid so glad Madrid let us keep him. THE ARSENAL ❤!!

Best interview I've read in a long long time. My Captain has me believing. Let's keep pushing...one game at a time.

I wanna see ODEGOD lifting that trophy after 38 games. I need this

I wasnt really a gunner before, or even a true supporter of any other team then my little home town club. But that all changed when ødegaard joined arsenal. I had been following his whole career pretty closely before that, just loved his style.. so i started watching arsenal games because of him. Pretty quickly i fell for the club and started believing in this rebuild process the gunners have been going through. All the young guns breaking through and the playstyle just makes spectating a joy and it makes it easy to be a fan. Watching this process reminded me what a great club this is and the beautiful football they used to play before. I also love the fact that this isnt a mercenary team built on dirty money, its a proper club, its proper club culture. I can support that! So anyway, now im a gunner, i watch all the games.. and my favorite player is the captain. Been a fantastic fan experience and i just cant wait for the rest of the season. COYG 👏👏👏👏😁

Whoever is cutting onions needs to stop? Seriously love this guy to bits. Wanted him when we got linked to him when he was 15, because I was 13 and around the same age as him and I thought it would be awesome to have someone my age play for my club. I am soo happy he gooner now and our captain. We love you Martin ♥🤍. (happy that me pestering you and your family on Instagram paid off 🤣)

Very rare to see such likeable & humble players. Arsenal seems to be full of them too.

Absolutely love this guy

We're gonna see this man's Armpits in May!

I remember the day when he signed for RM. I was like man it would be awesome for someone like him to be coached by Arsene. And I really did wish it! When he came on Loan I was so overjoyed. Mi Capitan! Hope you have the best years here with us.

Finally he's home

We should never take for granted what a special club Arsenal is. Almost every current and ex player realises in the end how lucky and supported they are

im a united fan but i love odegaard, so much respect for him and his game, especially what he went through

What a legend!

Never imagined he’d be flourishing at Arsenal. We all thought he could be amongst the worlds best but for it to happen with Arsenal is just fantastic. “If you said to me when I was 10 years old that in 2024 you’re gonna play for Arsenal and you’re gonna be captain there I would die for this” He fits this club so well.

Love his work ethic, humility and intricate passes. My captain!!!

He's a superstar, yet so humble and down to earth . Gooner forever ❤️

Liverpool supporter but since Odegaard came to Arsenal I've enjoyed them more and more. When Jesus arrived this year, he and Odegaard and Arteta took the rich Gunner culture to another level of integrity and passion and old fashioned pure joy for football. With Man U back in the saddle, and Liverpool looking like their next generation is up to the task, have to say the future of the prem is looking very bright at the top. Hopefully Chelsea can start scoring goals and get their hat in the ring too .. as for Spurs, well. 7th looks great on them haha

Quality Player. Quality Captain. Quality Human Being.

I had a place vacant in my heart after Fabregas left and now it's truly taken by Martin Odegaard.. Captain, leader and an amazing talent!

I think I love him even more now 😭🔥

I can really see Martin becoming an Arsenal legend, he seems so level headed and humble, he can be the Arsenal captain for the next decade.

You can tell how shy he still is. He is always looking down/away or breaking eye contact, yet he clearly has those special qualities because he’s our captain, and the team absolutely respects him Always wondered what would happen to him after he signed for Madrid, never ever thought he’d be at Arsenal wearing the armband

Never ever give up on yourself even when others think you’re not good enough. What a player he turned out to be, I knew he was different when I saw him in the second north London derby

Martin was just a footballer looking for a home i am glad he found one in arsenal we love you Martin❤️

My captain ❤ RM's loss, Arsenal's gain! COYG 🔴⚪️

Absolute joy to watch play and grow as a person. Martin Odegaard you are truly one of a kind. May prosperity and victory come to you and Arsenal. Vamos❤❤❤

imagine being coached by Zidane and saying Arteta is on another level.... My captain

My captain❤

Lovely lovely young man, how lucky we are that he came to The Emirates . Keep smiling sweetheart x

This is your Home. You are our Captain. We are happy and so blessed to have you with us. My captain.

I’m so grateful that Ødegaard plays for Arsenal honestly. Good luck for the rest of the season ❤

How beautiful Martin Ødegaard 😍❤️❤️ I wish you all the best and much success!

Honestly he’s such a humble great person , I hope he stays at our club for a while 🔴⚪️

My favourite player ..along with martinelli, saka , esr etc 👌 this whole team is just too perfect

Another layer to get to know him better, what a story, what a player. My Captain.

Been following PL-football for 30 years, although never really supported one particular club. (Simply the love for the game has been enough) As Norwegian, I must admit that I've paid extra attention to the clubs who had Norwegian players. One such highlight was Solskjær scoring the deciding goal in the CL-final for United. But recently, over the last couple of seasons, with Ødegaard joing Gunners, then getting to see the inside of the club through the All or Nothing-documentary/reality, I must admit it has opened my eyes. Really a club to love. What a squad, what amazing football they play, and with an incredibly passionate manager in Arteta, who even comes across as a real great guy himself. A true decent human being and a leader. And stories about former iconic players, returning as managers for the very same club they made their legacy, always gets me. I've been hoping The Gunners to take home the title this season, and while it looked so good, so long, it now seems a little too hard with City and their momentum...(and typically enough, a Norwegian striker tearing through record after record! 😏) Still, this young Arsenal-squad are simply now leaving the starting blocks of something great. I don't think anyone TRULY expected them to be a contender for the premiership title this early anyway. Within the next coming 3-4 years, I just know that they will have won something significant. Hopefully still with Ødegaard. And maybe simultaneously that other blonde, slightly longer haired Viking could trade in his light blue shirt for a red and white one...? 😄 (I know, won't happen!) But DAMN, it would be cool!

In my opinion, Martin is the best Captain we've had at The Arsenal since Patrick Viera....... he leads our club by example, he's an absolutely phenomenal Captain and a phenomenal playet. Martin is class both on and off the pitch and I like the fact that he says he feels that our club is his home..... and the fact that we got him for about £30 million makes it even sweeter. This lad is only going to get better and better and we'll have his best years.

We are so happy to have him here's to another 5 year's atleast.

This guy will go down as an Arsenal legend when he lifts the premier league later this year. Incredible player ❤️‍🔥

Future Arsenal legend without a doubt.

I’m glad that Arsenal bought him, lets go till the end and win the league, our captain lifting the trophy. What a moment that will be for him 💪🏼👏🏼

Odegaard and Saka personify what Arsenal stand for. Creative, technical footballers and outspoken, kind personalities.

Wonderful player, wonderful human being. He’s wise beyond his years and it’s clear to see, why Arteta made him captain after such a short amount of time! Martin, we are so blessed to have you here🔴⚪️

I love how genuine Ødegaard is. I really hope he fulfils his potential at Arsenal and helps us win more trophies.

i love the way he talk he has deep thoughts, hearts and ability to express that well i ll support his football career forever

Absolutely love the hard work determination and mental fortitude that Martin has shown throughout his short yet very successful career so far. By far my #1 favorite player on the Arsenal Squad today

That's my captain both National team and club, vi elsker deg Martin ❤️.

Wow, my man is top G after experiencing the difficulties he had. The wonder kid is playing with other wonder kids here in arsenal, saka, martinelly, smithrowe. Such Inspiration for Young Gunners 🔥

What​ a​ MAN!! Every​ hard​ thing​ he​ has been through​ makes​ HIM​ strong.​ I​ respect HIM​ so​ much.

Alexander Isak lifting him up 🥰 Funny how both of them were super hyped at a young age. Isak in Dortmund and Martin in Madrid. Then they both end up in Sociedad. To then both have a break through in the Prem this season. Pride of Scandinavia 😎

Oh captain, my captain! Thank you for choosing Arsenal, I knew it was the right move for all involved! The best part is that this is just a beginning of your story with us! ☺

“Maybe it was ment to be”❤️

What a guy. He’s at the perfect club too ❤

Hope to see him lift that premier league trophy this year🤞🏿🙏🏿

Tears in my eyes , love this boy and this beautifull club ❤️

martin, if you read this. I just wanna tell you that you very loved by everyone. let's make more story with arsenal.

Awesome guy Odegaard is fantastic captain good looking out to you

Captain Fantastic. Love him so much! He is just class. As class as It gets.

After reading the piece about him in the Athletic and reading this interview, I cannot fkn believe he plays for us. The number of clubs that wanted him, and the number of coaches that rated him, it still feels surreal that he's our captain. I feel like I'll wake up one day and Madrid's going to recall him or something xD Love this man, hope he retires a legend here

If United doesn't win the league, I hope Ødegaard will. Fantastic player and a great dude.

so glad we got you Ø❤️🤍

What a player! Became my favorite futbol player since he joined Arsenal on loan, love this guy

I'm a Real Madrid fan, and as much as I hate to admit it, his development likely stagnated due to the many loan moves that were dictated by the club, only to not give him any assurances in regard to a future spot in the starting XI when he returned and was already at an age where the likes of C. Ronaldo was already an established, top player in football. I also feel like we pulled him back from his loan move at Real Sociedad, only to remove the threat of him playing for a rivaling club in the league. His time with Real Madrid's castilla was an absolute mess as well. I'm just happy to see that he's finally flourishing. Unfortunately, he's not doing so at my favorite club during a time when he would likely slot seamlessly into our team, but we only have ourselves to blame for that.

Massively love this guy as a footballer. So so talented! Glad we have him!

I Am So Glad That He Is At Arsenal. 👍🤩

And i think i speak for all Arsenal fans, we love you here Martin! You are one of us 🙌❤️

You gotta love his character on and off the pitch. Real captain! Hope he continues to do well at Arsenal and make history with us in the years to come.

I absolutely adore him. My captain ♥️

I can't believe we have such a creative No10 with goal / assist threat - who presses at an elite level - captaining our club. Only 24 years old, so has many years ahead hopefully at Arsenal to help us win trophies.

as a swede living in Norway and a long time gooner, I really like this guy! Perfect fit for Arsenal

Remember seeing him join Real Madrid as a youngster. So happy to see how far he's come. COYG!

My captain❤ Our captain ❤

The best transfer Arsenal made in the last 10 years. Love this guy's mentality.

not only do you make me proud to be an arsenal fan, but also proud to be a norwegian Martin! We may be the same age but you definitely are way more mature and humble than i will ever be😂 COYG❤️

Soooooooo happy to have him at Arsenal!!! Captain of the team, future Arsenal legend!

Beautiful, he is the same age as me, same first name. I remember him getting all the headlines at 15, for some reason I always thought he is destined for Arsenal. And here we are, captain of the team. Amazing guy and player

now i know that Martin is not only a football player, but also a good person, a responsible young captain, a man who works hard enough to be talented and deserves to be seen and liked by more people

Thank you, Martin, for staying with us.

Don't ask me how but when he was 15, I knew he was gonna be an Arsenal player one day. Just didn't know that he'll turn out to become our captain. Amazing guy he is.

Amazing. He had a whole football career by the age of 18, then did it all again and came out better the second time around.

Love this guy. Getting better every game!

Brilliant. Thank you for this

Thank you for making this! Loved Martinelli's video too 👑

Nothing short of a king, hope he never leaves us, he will be a legend

Love these interviews Great work The player's tribunal

great video. Fantastic man and captain, proud to have him represent this modern Arsenal!
